SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill solves the issue of ephemeral and unstructured communication between delegated coding agents and the central orchestrator, ensuring that blockers, scope creep, and risks are captured in a durable, actionable format.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structured Signal Emission: Provides a standardized protocol for agents to report scope drift, blockers, and design risks using specific JSON sentinels and issue labels.
  • Deduplication Logic: Prevents redundant reporting by requiring unique signal IDs and checking for existing processed signals.
  • Use Case: When an agent discovers that a task requires modifying files outside the original scope, it uses this skill to emit a scope_drift signal, allowing the orchestrator to pause work and re-plan effectively.

Quick Start

Use the spurpower-worker-signals skill to emit a scope drift signal when you encounter unexpected complexity that requires a change in the original task plan.

FAQPage Schema
How do I standardize agent communication for error reporting in a multi-agent workflow?

You can standardize agent communication by applying specific JSON sentinel formats and issue labeling conventions, which capture blockers and architectural risks from delegated coding agents into a durable, actionable format for a central orchestrator.

When do I need to emit a scope drift signal in multi-agent orchestration?

You need to emit a scope drift signal when a delegated coding agent discovers that a task requires modifying files outside the original scope, allowing the orchestrator to pause work and re-plan the architectural approach effectively.

Can I use this skill to prevent redundant error reporting from multiple coding agents?

Yes, the skill prevents redundant reporting by requiring unique signal IDs and checking for existing processed signals, ensuring that blockers and scope changes are not duplicated in the central orchestrator's state management.

What is the best way to report architectural risks from delegated agents to an orchestrator?

The best way to report architectural risks is to use structured signal emission with specific JSON sentinels, ensuring durable state management and automated processing by the brain in multi-agent development environments.

Does multi-agent error reporting require specific formats for automated processing?

Yes, automated processing by the orchestrator requires adherence to specific JSON sentinel formats and issue labeling conventions to ensure task visibility and durable state management for project success.
